Burger Wars II Participation Poll

What's wrong Ben? Are you scared? Why, you're trembling like a leaf.

You're a fine chef. I'll give you that. Perhaps you were the best there was three years ago. But age catches up with everyone, even you Ben Parrish. Me, I'm in my prime. I've mastered the skills required to create a culinary delight on a bun and am fully prepared to accept this challenge.

Try not to lose too much sleep, Ben.

Well, look. I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm ready to declare Burger Wars II ON!!!

Here are the RULES:

The deadline is Saturday, November 23, 2002.

You must submit your entry to ben.parrish@verizon.net by 8:00 PM on that date.

Each entry must include:

1. A photo of the completed burger. Preferably no less than about 640x480 in size.

2. An ingredient list, starting from right above the plate to the highest point on the burger. Include as much detail as possible. Example: "Toasted bottom bun, thin layer of mayo, medium-thick patty cooked well done, slice of cheddar cheese, thin layer of Russian dressing, toasted top bun."

3. That's pretty much it.

Ready?

FIGHT!!!!!!

I am the mysterious THIRD VOTER.

Gerrit?

WHO IS THE THIRD YES VOTE!????

by **Ice Cream Jonsey** » Mon Nov 18, 2002 3:49 pm

It's unfortunate. He is kind of a loner. He's like Bill Bixby on the "Incredible Hulk."

dum dum da-dummmm.... dum dum dad-dummm dummm....

I don't think he ever really "embraced" this crowd.

Of course, if he did, he might not find himself in the SPIRALING VORTEX OF SELF-DESTRUCTION in which he is currently ensconced, possibly never to return.

Nice going, mister. Now *I* wish you were dead too!

by **Ice Cream Jonsey** » Mon Nov 18, 2002 3:31 pm

What about this BBS doesn't he like?

... Oh, right, he killfiled you. You'll never be able to answer that question. Never mind.

by **Ben** » Mon Nov 18, 2002 2:21 pm

No. What made you think he sobered up and came to his senses?

No, he doesn't read this BBS. And he doesn't post here because he doesn't read this BBS.

by **Ice Cream Jonsey** » Mon Nov 18, 2002 2:13 pm

Oh, I thought he sobered up or came down from his little trip there.

Does he ever read this BBS? Why does he not post here?

by **Ben** » Mon Nov 18, 2002 2:11 pm

Have you not been paying attention to the other thread in this base? CLASH IS NOT PARTICIPATING.

In ANYTHING.

EVER.

by **Ice Cream Jonsey** » Mon Nov 18, 2002 1:57 pm

Who are the three people? Why can't we at least have Gerrit, Clash, Ben and Robb? Why not that?

by **Ben** » Mon Nov 18, 2002 1:50 pm

Sure, why not. Sounds like fun.

by **Burger Wars Moderator** » Mon Nov 18, 2002 1:49 pm

Okay, it looks unlikely that we'll get more than the three currently signed competitors. Originally I wanted at least four or five competitors for BW2, but since there's only three, I'll put it up to followup vote among the three who signed up:

So, if you clicked "YES" for participation, please answer this question:

Would you like BW2 to go off as planned, even with only three competitors?

by **Burger Wars Moderator** » Sun Nov 17, 2002 7:39 pm

Clash has signalled his interest in participating. So, really, we only need one more "YES" vote up there, and it's a go.

by **Ice Cream Jonsey** » Sun Nov 17, 2002 7:33 pm

NEEDS MORE GODDAMN CLASH

by **Burger Wars Moderator** » Sun Nov 17, 2002 7:00 pm

CGG, have you voted? Meaning, are you included in the three "Yes" votes counted above?

by **ChainGangGuy** » Sun Nov 17, 2002 2:44 pm

What the hell, count me in! Besides, how hard can it be to make a tasty burger?

by **Burger Wars Moderator** » Sun Nov 17, 2002 1:15 am

Clash will participate in Burger Wars II.

The point is that we all photograph our attempts at making a cheeseburger, right?

Yes, and we here at Burger Wars Enterprises, Inc. have been very careful to not specify any particular parameters for judgement. Whether you judge primarily on presentation, visual aesthetics, or on specific ingredients which strike your fancy, that is up to you.

However, you are likely to do better (based on previous results) if your burger looks good, the photo captures the entire essence of the burger, and the ingredients appear to be delectable, or at least inoffensive. For instance:

Good: Melted cheddar cheese and 1000-Island dressing threatening to drip off the side of the beef patty.

Bad: Unidentifiable red splotches, and mustard on top of bun.

The point is that we all photograph our attempts at making a cheeseburger, right? So I am in this... Ben is in this... Clash, well, I have a problem with Clash being in this if he is a not a registered member of the BBS. I know the guy was devoured by wildlife not too long ago, but enough of him remains to click over to the "register" screen. (Ah, t'hell with it, this is just a very transparent way to try to get him to post on the BBS.)

Who else dare submit burgery goodness?
